4. when persons of either sex are included, but named after the more important: Matthew 14:35; Acts 4:4; (Meyer seems inclined (see his commentary on Acts, the passage cited) to dispute even these examples; but others would refer several other instances (especially Luke 11:31; James 1:20) to the same entry).

The special differentia of ἀνήρ : ἄνθρωπος survives in MGr (ἄντρας, ἄθρωπος), where even the old gen. sing. (ἀντρός) may still be found beside the ";regular"; τοῦ ἄντρα (Thumb Handbook, p. 48). Naturally there is nothing particular to record in the uses of this everyday word, which has in NT and Hellenistic generally much the same range as in class. Gk. Thus, taking the index to BGU IV., we can illustrate many of the uses noted for the NT in Grimm from documents of the Augustan period. So (1) husband by the perpetual phrase μετὰ κυρίου τοῦ ἀνδρός after the name of a woman, as 1126.4 (where ἀνδρός is written over an erased ὁμομητρίου ἀδελφοῦ), or in a marriage contract as 1098.33 τηρεῖν τὰ πρὸς τὸ ̣ν ̣ ἄνδρ ̣α ̣ καὶ τὸν κοινὸν βίον δίκαια, while the document will also use ἀνήρ for irregular relations in the pledge μηδ᾽ ἄλλωι ἀνδρὶ συνεῖναι ̣. Then under Grimm’s (3) we have 1189.11 οἱ σημαινόμενοι ἄνδρες ";the persons named,"; 1061.7 where Patellis and ἄλλοι, ἄνδρες ι ̄ε ̅ committed a burglary; the common phrase (τὸ) κατ᾽ ἄνδρα, ";viritim,"; in 1047 iii. 11 (A.D. 131); and (from A.D. 196) 1022.7 ἄνδρες κράτιστοι in address (cf. II. 646.20—A.D. 193—ὦ ἄνδρ ]ες Ἀλεξανδρεῖς) accounts for another use. Ἀνήρ in distinction from νήπιος or παιδίον alone remains : of this less common use we do not happen to notice an example, but literature supplies them in plenty. We might add as an instance of technical use ἀνδρῶν καὶ ἱππέω [ν ], P Flor II. 278iv. 29 (iii/A.D.).
